CHEAPER TELEGRAPHING.

The Western Union Telegraph Com
pany will on or about December l make
another sweeping reduction in rates COW
ering territory of about twenty nine
states and territories. Where the rate is
81 for ten words at present, the new
tariff will be Is cents; where the present
rate is IS cents, the new one will be go
cents. The company fnds that such q
reduction is posi- DIE and consistent with
the usual returns upon the capital in
vested IN the plant, and it has long been
its policy to reduce rates whenever feas-
ible. Texas used to pay So, so for ten
word telegram, to New York, the same
that can be sent at present for 70 cents,
and this reduction has been brought
about by regular and graduated reductions
as the business Of the company justified
It is fortunate for the public, and must
be considered wise move on the part of
the company. So long as that corpora
tion is satisfied with reasonable, even
liberal, profit, people will be satisfied,
and by msnifesting disposition to serve
the public at the lowest cost consistent
with good business management, it will
deprive the advocates of a government
telegraph of an argument. The country
is not yet ready for that species of pater-
nalism which places every industry in the
hands of central body, nor would it be
fair to force competition between a le-
Ultimate enterprise and one backed by the
Treasury of the United States. The
Western Union is to be congratulated on
it's wise decision.

CONGRESSIONAL WORK.

Congress will meet in few days, and
our esteemed contemporary, the Con-
gressional Record, will resume publica-
ton under q truly orthodox editorial man
agement. Congressman, senators and
lobbyists are vending their way toward
the national capital and preparing quar-
tiers for themselves for the winter. The
old members are busy collecting and COL
lating data for this bill or that, and the
new members are meanderiDg around
'learning the ropes" becoming acquaint-
ed and convincing themselves really and
truly they are congressman and iDpor-
tsnt factors in the legislative department
OF the country. Texas will send some of
these frst-course or freshmen congress-
men and some e-hardened sophomores,
the gear marks upon whom denote
them old stagers, and whose en-
tire satisfaction with themselves and
all about them gives evidence
of their entire willingness to continue in
office until like Nicanor, they lie dead in
the harness. But Texas is we'll and
ably represented and the youngest mem
bers are among the Oldest and most ex-
perienced men in the country. There
will be little done during the session.
The railroads will try to secure modiflca-
tons Of the Interstate law, and consider
able time will be frittered away in this
manner. The tariff question will be dis
cussed and after an expenditure of a
vast amount of learning and eloquence,
and an outpouring of words of learned
length and laundering sound, the matter
will be left about where 1t is now. An
effort will be made to reduce the tariff CT,
increase the free list, but this must be
handled carefully, as on the results of
this winters work depends the success of
the next Presidential campaign. The
bloody shirters and bounty jumpers
will formulate aystem of robbery and
call it dependent pension bill and force
the Democrats to defeat it. This will
furnish Foraker, Sherman, futile ct al.
with text for the campaign in 1888
Much is expected Of the present session
# Congress and very little will be accom-
plished, or can be accomplished, owing
to the circumstances surrounding.

RAILROAD SERVICE CHANGES.
RAsTE8WORKMAN POWDERLY.
ae Will Not Reconsider His Determination
to Retire.

he Will lot Reconsider Els Determination
to Retro.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Nov. 25.-General
Masterworkman Powderly, in response to
a request from the Knights OF this city
urgii g him to reconsider his determine
ton to retire from the leadership of the
order, has written 3 letter of which the
following is the substance: "You ask
me to reconsider my determination to re-
tire from the head of the order after the
next session. I don't see now l can do
so, and it would be unfair to ask me to
retain position l do not want, and which
am confident another man can fill with
better advantage to the order at large.
During the past year L have received
thousands Of letters from persons, in
which was abused, condem ned and asked
to resign. The papers were full of abuse.
Threats of impeachment were made and
withdrawal from the order were freely
INDUCED. Through this cloud Of gloom,
but one ray of light made it's way, and it
came from far away Denver, where Dis
trict Assembly 80 passed those ringing
resolutions endorsing my course and con-
demning the anarchist element which
sought to prostitute the order to its own
osseness. / felt that the order would
stand more cheerfully by some other
mao than il would and by me. True, l
have never had cause to find fault with
the off isl treatment I have received, but

upon it, and the men who got hired at

pie and of liberty, but the application
made oy the Record may well be dis
puted. The widest latitude is permitted
and should be permitted to all in crifi-
cism Of the law and of it's administration
and execution, but he who haranguea
men into violation OF law is criminal.
The Poop Of this country are the law
givers, however demagOgu may rail,
and they will never abridge free speech;
out because they are the law
makers they will insist upon OBJ
servance of law and punish its violation.
Men who escape the penalty for laws
violation do so by circumvention of the
popular will, but these escapements fur
nish no reason for "throttliHg the law"
Herr Most would destroy the Law and
hsrangued his hearers to its violation; he
and his followers are the foes of free
speech and not the people who make the
law he would throttle. No restriction is
placed upon criticism OF Judge or jury or
SAC4lAt saw Guob VA VIC AIOC4 SehEuIC1 OUS
this guarantee OF free speech is not q
license to destroy the law under which
free speech is possible.
The arrest of Herr Most was upon no
pretext. The people of this country do
not dread criticism, but provide for
freest criticism by law. AS long as
Johann Most keeps within that law he
can harangue meetings and print his ut
terances ad nausesm, but when he coun-
sells destruction of the, very guarantee of
the liberty he enjoys, without sympathy
with it or comprehension OF it, he should
be taught by the laws severity what he
failed or refused TO learn through its
bene ffcence and lenlty.
